About the show
MaxFun Presents is dedicated to stuff a little more behind the scenes and fun at Maximum Fun, a worker-owned podcast network.
Join the staff of Maximum Fun as we argue over what makes the perfect mall store in our March Malldness bracket. Is it the iconic scent of a baked pretzel or cinnamon roll as you walk through the food court? Affordable ear piercings or blacklight band posters? Memories of an unsanctioned sports official checking if your shoe size is in the back or lounging in a massage chair after a long day of shopping?
Every episode pits two iconic mall brands head-to-head from regions like Department Stores, Food Court and “I’m just looking” to decide what deserves your vote in the March Malldness bracket. The winner will be announced during the MaxFunDrive Finale stream on Friday, March 29, 2024.
